My 26 year old son cured it finally after failing at all the conventional treatment. Seems to be localized scurvy essentially. High-dose vitamin C cured it. He dissolves about 25 grams of vitamin C crystals in a water bottle and sips it all day long. Cathcart's paper on titrating to bowel tolerance should be studied as well. My son's follicles stopped clumping and the non-scarred scalp fully recovered. Initially, I treated the infection nightly slathering on Manuka honey), then I snuck in some C crystals with the honey, and finally I convinced him to try the high-dose continuous C, which really did the trick long term (the honey worked wonders on the scale). He had brain surgery when he was 7 and a brain tumor, cured by Burzynski, so it makes sense, based on published science about ascorbate vanishing from tissues in head and neck when the brain is injured, that the scalp would show scurvy symptoms which evolve to folliculitis decalvans. There is probably an association between some brain trauma or concussion earlier in life and this disease.
